Welcome, the Hunter Theatre is located on the campus of Hunter School of the Performing Arts, Cameron Street, Broadmeadow.

Theatre Context

The highly acclaimed Hunter Theatre is one of the region's prime performance spaces and hosts a range of concerts, musicals, plays, dance and other events. The Hunter Theatre has been impressing audiences since opening in 2007.

Newcastle is Australia's seventh largest city and the 365 seat Hunter Theatre, with the capacity to extend to 380 seats, has created its own niche by being an intimate yet fully serviced Theatre equipped with a fly tower and orchestra pit.

The fully tiered seating, has dedicated spaces available to persons with limited mobility and lifts to enable access to upper and lower levels within the Theatre, for both front and back of house.

As the Hunter Theatre is utilised by the students during school hours, school days are limited to a 4pm bump-in time.

Construction Work

Please note that during 2018-19 there will be construction work in progress behind the Theatre to build a new school hall and multi-purpose centre. All attempts will be made to minimise noise, but at times significant noise will be unavoidable.
